Mini float switches
A miniaturised Reed float switch to be used as a reliable overfill prevention device. They are potential-free and are based on a very simple yet tried-and-tested technology. The compact design of the mini float switches allows for reliable level detection in the smallest of containers.
The value-for-money mini float switches are prefabricated and available directly from stock in a wide range of materials. They can also be customised to meet customer requirements.
